“Do...do you know of the Vanderbilts?” Did you know that you just scolded the heir of one of the most powerful families in the country? This is the true question, the one that Scar dares not to ask.Scar glances in Silco’s direction, a shade of nervousness in her voice that she didn’t even notice herself.They picked up Lilith before calling it a day. Silco played with Alice the whole ride to Lilith’s place. Didn’t want to talk about Damian in front of Lilith or Alice, Scar just remained silent as guilt eats her up.Her deal with Silco is about the Fullers. Silco needs it exactly because he didn’t want a stain on his name, so she doesn’t imagine he would be too happy to get on the wrong side of a Vanderbilt.Silco looks over, his deep eyes lingering before he nods simply: “Yes, I do.”Scar swallows unconsciously.Should she tell him who Damian was? He stood up for her. It would be horrible of her to keep Damian’s identity from him, especially if Damian causes trouble for him because o

“This is just going to piss Scarlett off!”Huffing at her father, Ava rolls her eyes as they pass the dim passageway with the bidders. Not like she is willing to give in to Scarlett on the necklace, but publicly selling off the necklace to her is only a declaration of war, something her cautious father would never do. But Jack Fuller seems determined to follow through.The auction allows masks, not that a simple mask could conceal one’s identity, especially at the level of people who can afford to be here. But still, Ava has a mask on. Not only that, she’s also in a sluttier dress with the back cutting all the way to her waist – to throw people off, as she says.But Jack Fuller knows these are just Ava’s ways of acting out. After the fallout with Sebastian. He knows his daughter better than anyone else, and for all the years of her playing the tamed angle for Sebastian, there is bound to be a blowout after she lost all hope of that man.Complying with Ava, Jack Fuller is also under a

“I will divorce him for a price,” Ava adds with a pout, “He owed that marriage to me, and he never lived up to his responsibility as a husband to me.”“The blood we gave him was Scarlett’s to begin with. What did you expect when you forced his hand into a marriage?” Jack Fuller sighs, shaking his head slowly with disappointment in his eyes. He has done shitty things, for his wife and his daughter. He thought he was doing all he could to protect his family, but he never expected his daughter to only learn his dirty trick out of those.“You forced mom and it turned out fine,” Ava shrugs with an indifferent tone.“What did you say to me?!” Jack Fuller raises his hand, and Ava freezes in fearful tears. In the end, his hand didn’t land.Jack Fuller lets a deep, long sigh. He grips his fist to hide the shiver of his hand.Anna was in love with Johnny Vanderbilt when they got married. He has always loved Anna, so when Anna came to him for a proposal out of nowhere, he took it. He took it kno

226“They are not coming!” Ava hisses at Jack Fuller, darting her eyes around in haste, couldn’t keep calm for more than 3 seconds at a time.She can’t wait to get rid of Scarlett permanently from her life. She didn’t know Scarlett was pregnant when she tripped her downstairs, but it didn’t mean she wasn’t happy about the outcome. She got Scar into prison; she got Z-House, a money printing machine; she got the title of Mrs. Knight. Though she and Sebastian wasn’t quite like before, but that now seems a much simpler problem compared to Scarlett the psycho coming after her.Ever since Scar showed up on the homecoming party, Ava hasn’t been sleeping well for a single day. She knew Scar wouldn’t let it go easily this time, and she knew her old army -- her Mom, her Dad, her Sebastian -- didn’t have power over the Scar now. Even her pure bully of a brother is hiding somewhere that no one knows after Scar raised a fuss at home.She can’t wait for Scar to be contained, and that, Johnny Vander

“The gentleman on the second floor”.Sebastian’s plate doesn’t even have a number, but just one letter – Z.It’s unlikely that he could see and spot Ava from that huge window on the second floor, but Ava feels like Sebastian glanced at her coldly when he raised his plate just now.Wronged tears fill Ava’s eyes.She should have been up there. She was supposed to be the queen of the Knights, and she got her title fair and square. But now that man put all his sweet words and promises behind his head, and looks at her with only coldness.[Sebastian, No.86 is me,] Ava types in her phone, but hesitates when her finger hovers over “send”.One word after another, Ava deletes the message, and sends [Sebastian, I’m at an auction today] instead.No reply.Holding the phone, Ava looks up at Sebastian. The man sits there with a straight face, his eye never even dart to the table where his phone blinks.Biting her lips, Ava holds her phone to her ear after dialing Sebastian's number. Anger rushing

Sebastian calls again.Scar doesn’t even raise her eyes in either direction of the two men calling the price up for that little ring. She leans right with her elbow on the arm of the chair like a lazy cat, her icy purple pupils indifferent, giving off a deadly queen aura. But few can see the slight curve of her lips—She knew Sebastian wanted the ring, badly.She came for her mom’s necklace, but at arriving she knew Sebastian would come – HIS ring is on the list.She knew of that ring for a while now. Well, she has known the existence of that ring for her whole life. Like any teenage girl, she wanted to know everything about her crush, and she found out about the ring when it was still a picture in his notebook. She knew he was designing a ring, she watched that ring come to life, kept by him in a velvet little box, and she knew who it was for—Ava Fuller.The ring was the cleanest corner of the heart of a boy with the first, pure, luring taste of love.Scar was always jealous of that

Sure there are much more expensive rings, but not this one.Sure, it’s the heart of the almighty Sebastian Knight, but he was only a teenager himself when he designed the ring. He had limited resources – well, limited as a Knight. Still. The designer is a family friend, and the stone, while rare, is only worth his pocket money at that time. The most valuable about the ring, is the emotion he stores in it.Scar is upset at Sebastian’s tactful strategy – to follow her price only with 10,000$ at a time, and then suddenly doubles it. Anyone, even Silco himself if he was here today, would hesitate at least for a second.Giving Sebastian a death stare, Scar doesn’t raise her plate. Fine! He wants his damn ring so much? He can have it! It’s not like she’s here for that stupid ring anyway.Sebastian is looking in her direction. Gloating? Scar is determined not to look over, but then he opens his mic and clears his throat as if he wants to talk. Uncontrollably, Scar looks over, only to see his

Sebastian calls again. Not utter anything like Scar, he just simply raises his plate every time Ava does.Up on the second floor, the man just raises his plate whenever the host calls out the new price, as if the plate is remote, and he is changing the channel just to kill time. Down there, Ava is squirming on her seat as if there are thorns coming out of the cushion. Every time Sebastian raises she would turn and look at him, huffing so hard that her chest is heaving like waves as if it’s visible for the man thirty feet away.It's not. Or, the man chooses not to see.Then Ava would dart her head between the host announcing the end of apparently her life and the man she loved with all her life, fighting for the plate with her father during the little pauses until she bites the bullet and raises again, only to turn more desperate when the man crashes her hope time after time.Watching the farce, Scar feels like Ava’s tears fuels on the darkness in her soul, and right now as it burns, f

Prepared for this question, Scar answers unnecessarily fast: “I couldn’t risk anyone helping Ava to get MY Mom’s necklace. That’s why.”Her answer dims the pleasant light in Sebastian’s eyes.“I know…” Sebastian nods slowly, hiding the disappointment in his eyes, “But you didn’t have to come help because of that, did you?”Scar snorts coldly: “I’m doing this for Granny, not you.”“Granny kicked me out of the company for what happened five years ago,” Sebastian lets out a light laugh, “I’m pretty sure she would be the last one who would want you to help me right now.”Scar raises her eyebrows. She didn’t think Granny would be so cruel to Sebastian, but then again, there weren’t too many who could rip Sebastian’s title easily.“What did you tell her?” Scar frowns.Scar blamed Sebastian only because he trusted the wrong person. Legally, or any other aspect speaking, he wasn’t the killer five years ago. He just protected the killer was all. But Ava was never convicted, and Scar didn’t thi

“You want to meet early?” Scar glances at her phone to make sure the caller is indeed Damian, “Sure thing, but how early can dinner be?”She’s a bit surprised that Damian would move their dinner plan forward, but considering how he has been making effort to build a connection, she persuaded herself.“Authur, could you--?”“Yes, Miss Green,” Authur answers swiftly, “After you deliver the card, I will drive you right over.”Scar: “…”This time she’s really not trying to dodge that bullet! Didn’t he hear that it was Damian Vanderbilt who--… Whatever.Standing in front of Sebastian’s new building, Scar is still grumbling Silco’s name, along with his evil loyal driver, Author. Sebastian’s new building is not the same as before – the modern design of Z-house as its own symbol. This time it’s just a normal building, low-key to the extreme, considering its owner’s usual luxurious style.A sour wave washes Scar’s heart.Kind and gentle, Sebastian was never low-key. He was the shining prince of

“Why do I have to do it myself?!” Scar huffs, glaring at Silco.Sitting on the sofa casually with his legs crossed, Silco glances at Scar from above the papers he’s reading, amused. A moment ago the girl was crying in his arms, and now she’s like a kitten with her tail stomped on.“I can send Arthur over!” Scar pouts.“If you can command him,” Silco answers almost gently, but the laughter in his voice is not hidden at all.Scar rolls her eyes.“I’ll just--I--” Scar blurts, fidgeting around, “You already gave up on Sebastian’s company, so why are you making the one last step so hard for me?!”“Sorry, I didn’t think delivering a card to a fancy office building with a driver at your service all the time would be a horrifying chore,” Silco answers, still with that annoying smile.“You KNOW that’s not what I’m talking about!” Scar snaps angrily. If she had been grateful to this man with her full heart a moment ago, she is now annoyed 120%, “You can send anyone but me!”“I’m spending two bi

All the way home Scar feels like something stuffed in her chest. Over and over again she tells herself that she doesn’t care about Johnny Vanderbilt, but it doesn’t seem to work.A car seemed to have followed her for a while, but it was gone at the last turn.She lives in a house in the upper part of the town now, a community better and safer than the Fuller’s villa. Silco rented her this place, along with the guards. When she arrives, Silco is not yet home.Scar throws herself into the sofa, frustrated about Johnny Vanderbilt, and herself. Not only did she have to take all the garbage about him from Jack Fuller, but she also had to see with her own eyes that the man was not interested in making up with her. Not that she cares, but still, it doesn’t feel good.She is getting mixed information about that man.In Damian’s eyes he was a loving husband, a strict father who spoils his own daughter. But Emma left him for cheating, Anna was convinced that he was still into her, and from what

With Ava and Jack Fuller hovering at the front door, Scar doesn’t even step out of the elevator, but just remains inside for the underground parking lot. She is so drowned in Damian’s words that she barely makes it out before the door closes on her—“You are a lot like Mom,”That’s what he said. Even now Scar’s heart is pumping fast at that. Is she? She doesn’t even remember being held in that woman’s arms. She doesn’t remember the home she briefly stayed in. She doesn’t even remember the car accident which should have left some impression even in her childish mind.But she grew up into a woman a lot like her angel-like mother?What did she blurt? She was so daunted in the face that she murmured: “I have always imagined her to be like one of those…”Elegant ladies. Those who would sit in a café at 3pm, watching out the window with 20-dollar-coffee in hand.“Like a lady, huh?” Damian grins, seeing through her easily, “Nahhhh. Far from it.

I got Mom’s necklace. Even when completing the process in the office after the auction, it still feels surreal. Anna Fuller’s appearance was unexpected, but what was the real surprise was how easily Johhny Vanderbilt gave up on the necklace in the end when I called my price.I can’t take the necklace away, not till the bank processes the deal. But I got all the papers the Fuller’s provided for its authenticity. Finally, the first step of my revenge, is grasped in my palm. The plan is to get the papers and send them to prison –Silco would freeze the card after I win the necklace, giving me exactly three days to prove the Fuller’s guilty on faking the files. I want Mom’s necklace, but I don’t plan on making that bloodsucking family billionaires by buying something originally mine from them.It’s them who have to pay.“So…” I turn to Damian, feeling a bit awkward. I have been really mean to him ever since I met him, and yet he came to my help today without hesitation. I’d be lying if I

The love-and-hatred show is still on as Scar and Damian quarrel. Johnny Vanderbilt would raise his plate instantly after the host announces Anna’s call or even faster, and Anna would pout, bite her lips, and glare over before she raises again. Her face is like a painting plate, changing color in seconds as if every one of his calls is like a bomb blowing up on her face.The phone call comes in at that moment--Anna’s phone rings, breaking the silence in the room, loud and clear. She glances at it with an indifferent face, not picking it up. But her hand hesitates to raise her plate again.“Who could be calling her?” Scar murmurs to Damian. All of Anna’s family is down there by her side. Her parents died years ago. So who could be so important to her that a phone call from him could hesitate her decision?Seeing all these, Johnny Vanderbilt suddenly raises his plate again, this time announcing himself: “Two billion.”Anna’s tears break out as her hand drapes powerlessly -- it’s not the

Tears flow down Anna Fuller’s cheeks, the plate raised halfway in her hand is shaking hard because she was not expecting Johnny Vanderbilt to be so cruel to her—He knew she was going for the necklace, and he did not only bid for it, but actually gave her a price that told her to keep away from it.One billion. What a cold number.Jack Fuller didn’t want her to come. In fact, Jack Fuller didn’t tell her about the auction of the necklace. But she knew. She knows everything about Johnny Vanderbilt, the man who was supposed to be on the sacred altar with her. How could Jack Fuller expect her to not come?Ava is beyond excitement at Johnny Vanderbilt’s bid – to Ava, it’s just a number unnecessarily high for an item they stole with a reserve price low as 30 million. But whatever. Maybe the riches just like to brag about how much money they have. The more the better – for her.The item is listed under her name, and she takes the bigger part of the final price.Scar raises her plate in a has

Scar didn’t think it would go this smoothly.She prepared several other reasons and actually rehersed in her head on her speech to persuade Damian, who known to be an ironwrist in the courtroom, shouldn’t be persuaded easily. But maybe just eager to maintain the peace with his long lost sister, Damian jumped on board without so much as a nudge.All parties are set, and now between Scar and the necklace, remains only “the last minute”.Everyone knows “once, twice, sold,” but few know that after the host announces the upset price, bidders have 60 seconds before the item is announced unsold. This time is called “the last minute” because it’s the most crucial battle between bidders—to decide, fake, trick, or hide their strategies over an item.You don’t want to show your cards too early too clearly. Some would wait for the last few seconds to call, and others use this time to feel out the bottom price from other bidders. Once the first call is announced, it’s a bloody war.Ava wants an un
